vimtovento 0 Posted November 26, 2007 Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 Hi Guys,Question for you, I had a Vege remanufactured engine fitted in April this year. All was going well run in nicely oil changed at 1K and now serviced at 4K. Over the weekend i've lost power will not rev over 3.5K no pull at all. I checked the hoses after a 4 mile journey and they where hard as nails. I allowed the engine to cool for 10 mins then popped off the header tank cap, it was like an eruption! Left it for another couple of minutes started her up and the dredded bubbles appeared. Seems like a Head Gasket gone, but no oil in water or vice versa, no water in the exhaust? Seems strange, could this be something else causing the cooling system to pressurise? :^) What could cause the head to go so soon? Link to post Share on other sites

vimtovento 0 Posted November 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2007 You may be right there Phil. Vege tech help mentioned the same thing, I bloody well hope its something as easy as this...... :@ I've ordered a neuspeed 160 degree stat and low temp fan switch to see if this helps matters.
